Lisa ‘s incident became more serious in the country’s billion-people market when Lisa and her fans’ Weibo accounts were deleted. Even worse, two Chinese stars Angelababy and Truong Gia Nghe had difficulty and limited their activities after watching Lisa perform a striptease.

Comprehensive sanctions were imposed on Lisa for violating rules applicable to celebrities in China. The “Celebrity Self-Management Measures” of the China Performing Arts Association stipulate that “entertainers shall not organize, participate in or promote pornography, gambling, drugs, violence, terrorism…”. In China, there are strong criticisms that Lisa’s performance in Crazy Horse is a show that commercializes women and encourages obscene performances.

Lisa seriously lost points in the eyes of many viewers when performing a striptease at a 19+ bar.

Companies noticed the anomaly and took quick action. The two luxury brands that Lisa is an ambassador for, such as Bvlgari and Celine, respectively deleted and edited Lisa’s photos in private mode on their Chinese social network accounts. The Chinese market accounts for a significant portion of global luxury goods consumption, so Lisa’s current crisis will certainly become a burden for these brands.

“If Lisa is banned in the Chinese market, the company can still promote it in the US and European markets. But who can be sure that she will be able to re-sign with these brands when her contract expires?”, “Many luxury brands will be cautious when considering inviting Lisa, who wants to lose a lucrative market like in China? ”…

The Korean Wave is not facilitated by the Chinese government but has still had a certain influence in the past few years despite barriers in this market. Lisa, a Thai national, is free in her activities in China despite being a Kpop idol. However, her Weibo account is a signal of censorship from the authorities.

Korean audiences asked Lisa to leave BlackPink, Jennie was also affected

The wave of protests against Lisa is not only fierce in China but also in many other major markets. Korean audiences believe that Thai female idols tarnish the image of Kpop idols . Not only Lisa, Jennie was also affected.

On  No Cut News , hundreds of comments from Korean audiences criticized Lisa, with readers in their 40s overwhelming with 47%.

“She ruined our Kpop image with her striptease performance. I never imagined I would see Korean idols performing in such a place!”, “Korean idols also need to be careful. Trying to gain popularity through provocative tactics will only make you look cheap. Hwasa is the same, she’s trying to use her body to get famous when she should be focusing on her singing ability”, “It’s crazy to imagine a top idol stripping on stage…” – comments left.

Many people believe that BlackPink’s path to the Chinese market is now ruined because of Lisa: “YG seems to have objected but she still stubbornly chooses to appear, causing great damage to YG, shareholders and YG staff. If they count income from concerts, album sales, luxury brand advertising… they will lose billions and tens of billions of won.

On top of that, she also tarnished the image of Kpop and BlackPink. Korean idols should at least apologize for doing things like this, but Lisa even left a comment on Instagram saying she would be there when the bar needed to fill up space.”

Some believe that not only Lisa, Jennie also crossed the limit when appearing in a movie that was considered “trash” like  The Idol . In this Hollywood work, Jennie has many sensitive dance scenes, boring dialogue, and poorly rated acting:

“Jennie and now Lisa both appear on shows with 19+ content. Her songs are pretty good and they’re already famous, so why are they like this?”, “Jennie is the same. Just looking at her acting and appearance in her debut American drama, the only answer is that BlackPink disbands!”.

Lisa and Jennie (right) both have works labeled 19+ creating a wave of intense controversy.

Many comments asked Lisa not to renew the contract with YG and leave BlackPink.

“Remove her from BlackPink. It seems like dating her tycoon boyfriend has made her lose her mind”, “Lisa should have been at peace with her role. She doesn’t differentiate between right and wrong and arrogantly thinks she can do anything”, “Leave Korea. She makes BlackPink look cheap. You should no longer recruit foreign idols”, “Lisa is always a problem! I would rather YG fire Lisa or launch another BlackPink.”

While information about BlackPink’s contract is still a question mark, YG has set the debut date of BlackPink’s successor girl group, Baby Monster. This girl group is expected to achieve global popularity, replacing BlackPink’s position at YG.
